Lois, Quick question...
Do gibbiceps keep their colour/pattern as they grow older or do they lose it? If so is there any way to minimise the loss?
I hope they dont lose it cause i have a little guy with wicked colouring at the moment, almost looks like another type.
Cheers
Krumpet
like all catfish these things can change in a heart beat going from blotchey to superb colors quickly. gibbies are pretty good in the right conditions they can maintain pretty good color although they do fade a bit but not too much. Ive seen a stunning specimen at over 10 inches peter
mine change colour especially while they are ard the driftwood/log.
